Why are people upset that beat writers are reporting a change to the center-ice logo? Especially in a season where we know we are going to be awful and there is currently zero else to talk about. You guys are exhausting with the constant whining about everything. "OMG A BEAT WRITER IS BOUGHT AND PAID FOR BECAUSE HE TWEETED SOMETHING IN THE OFFSEASON ABOUT A CHANGE TO THE CENTER ICE LOGO LOL WHAT TRASH!"

I am always curious what you guys think the role of journalists are or what their job is. They get paid to generate clicks/sell newspapers/subscriptions/whatever. On a slow news day, the news will be slow.

What should they do? Nothing? And then when the season starts and people notice everyone will say, "LOL OUR BREAT WRITERS ARE SO AEWFUL THEY DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE THE CENTER ICE LOGO WAS CHANGED!" Or maybe they should only send out tweets like the episode of The Office with the "It is your birthday." banner. One sentence, no reason for anyone to read it or click the link or anything. Just a tweet that says "new logo at center ice." Why even post a picture or a link? No one on HFBoards cares!

the only thing that flyers fans hate more than the penguins is the flyers, and every one of their fans

Flyers rookie camp literally started today. Did you know that? You sure know about the stupid ice logos. I wonder why?

Who is down for Charlie baseball takes?


Didn't he make the pandering take?

Why are you so upset that we're upset?

They changed the logo. Report that. Don't wax poetic about the organization as if it means anything other than that. ASF and Russ Joy openly changed their stances regarding the organization the second that Keith Jones was hired. Why do you think that is?

This is what the Flyers are at this point. Pointless gestures that yearn for the past. Time is a flat circle.

I enjoy popping into this thread as an outsider when I see it pop up in the sidebar. On this page alone there are four different media people on Twitter saying how great it is that the ice is painted in a certain way because traditions. I don't know how newsworthy this is but the apparently reverential treatment it's getting - moreso than the actual on-ice product seems to be - is just f***ing tragic. Good luck with it.

It's just another way for these people to put the blame on the "old" regime for not being "real" Flyers.

It's been the Flyers MO for years despite the vast majority of the organizational structure staying the same throughout. Deflect, deflect, deflect.

People eat it up though.
